Jungpana Second Flush/SpecialTeas

Sep 13, 2005 1 Replies

I received 1/4 lb of this tea (Jungpana FTGFOP1 Second Flush #145) on Sept. 6th. When I prepared a cup and took a first sip I immediately got up from my comfortable armchair and ordered 1 lb of it. What made me to interrupt my cup was fine, true muscatel flavor of this remarkably fine tea, its noble fruitiness and multiple light notes of autumnal forest ground. It's a classic style Darjeeling Second Flush tea at its best. This kind of tea was very hard to find in the past five years. I certainly wasn't alone to get so excited about this tea because the demand of this tea literally exploded. The staff of SpecialTeas had confirmed my order but the next day I received an e-mail with appologies ( the item is out of stock for unforeseen demand) and confirmation that I might receive the tea in 30 day or so. I wasn't yet recovered from my disappoitment when I received the confirmation that the order was shipped and today it's on my table. I've tasted it to be sure and it is OK!. I owe compliments to the staff of SpecialTeas and particularly to their tea-taster.

I just finished last year's stash, and it was great. Looks like I'm going to have to move quick if I want to get any of this year's!
